Table 2 Genes over-expressed in spleen of Non-Immune Mice. Values within square brackets [] represent the fold increase in the expression of each gene by mice mock-vaccinated with PBS compared to mice vaccinated with semi-allogeneic vaccines.

LAT [2.9]

Linker for activation of T cells, involved in T-cell receptor (TCR)-initiated, T cell-specific signaling events and possibly associated with over- stimulation and apoptosis of T cells

GATA3 [2.5]

GATA binding protein 3, a transcription factor that favors expression of Th2-type cytokines

SOCS3 [1.5]

Suppressor of cytokine signaling 3, is a negative regulator of cytokine signaling

Gfi1 [3.8]

Growth factor independent 1, a transcriptional repressor essential during myeloid differentiation (Gfi1-/- mice exhibit diminished monocyte-derived dendritic cells and disturbed cytokine production by macrophages in response to LPS)
